Named "Best Barbecue in NY" by both New York Magazine and Time Out New York, "Top 10 Barbecue in the U.S." by the Wall Street Journal and "Best New Restaurants of the Year" by New York Magazine, Hill Country takes its "cue" from legendary Texas barbecue joint Kreuz Market and its distinctive dry-rub style. Hill Country's brisket, sausage, ribs and other meats are smoked low and slow over Texas post oak. The barbecue is served in butcher paper, counter-style by the pound, with traditional trimmings. Hill Country features two full bars with an extensive menu of long neck beers, tequila and bourbon, and a state-of-the-art sound system and stage for live music celebrating the thriving Austin music scene. Signature versions of classic southern sides and sweets include Longhorn Cheddar Mac & Cheese, Campfire Baked Beans with Burnt Ends, and the Original PB&J Cupcake. A marketplace full of Lone Star State favorites includes: Big Red Soda, Kreuz Market Sausages and more.

Hill Country offers free live music in our Boot Bar Tuesday through Saturday. Join us for our LIVE BAND karaoke every Tuesday starting at 8:30pm and feel like a rock star! For a complete listing of upcoming shows, visit http://music.hillcountryny.com.

Hill Country never disappoints. Moist brisket just melts in your mouth. If you can't decide on what to eat, grab the Pitmaster (pork ribs, spicy sausage link, brisket and chicken with 2 sides). Baked beans with burnt ends can't be beat. If your table just likes BBQ, go on Monday and have "all you can eat" (whole table must partake). Hill Country is one of my "GO TO'" for dining.

Love the meat, sides could better and even have more of a selection... I also think you could more for your buck, not a lot of food and for the money we’re putting into a meal. Also, I think it’s really ludicrous to ask to recommend a 18 to 22% tip when the customers serve themselves for the most part... just my opinion

What really threw us off with this restaurant was the lack of courteous table service. The folks bussing the tables and the people serving the food in the cafeteria section were all great. The waitress was missing for nearly all of the meal and we had a hard time getting drinks and even our check. She was even discourteous to our grandmother. Too bad. Decent location and neat concept. We love BBQ. But with that service from the front of the house, we won't go back.
